in Hancock, the CCAA in Calumet, and worked extensively at the Omphale.\u00a0\u00a0 Clyde is a bit of a \u201ctime traveler\u201d.\u00a0 He enjoys occasionally stepping back into the world of the \u201cLimners\u201d, itinerant artists of the mid 18<sup>th<\/sup> century, and much of his artwork reflects the unspoiled beauty of that time.\u00a0 He as shared this interest in with many area
